Derrick, those are awesome! I'm so glad you posted them. What an amazing artist Patry was! I so enjoy seeing others talents.
I had remembered where I saw some of her fantastic marbles...that longest cat's eye thread at Marble Mental (I think it's up to about 39 pages by now).

I had not checked the boards for several days and when I did, I was shocked to see the news about Patry. I had known her for a long time through the boards and was lucky enough to meet her in person at the 2004 Dallas show. We had several visits during the show and she had some of her outstanding marbles with her. What a pleasure! My condolences to her family.

I do have these two pictures that I found. I thought maybe her family might like to copy them. --mm-

This is Patry on the right and on the left in both pictures.

I posted on the other two boards... about our links to patry, our fun with marbles for many years etc. but after reflecting on her passing for a couple of days, I can honetly say it's incomprehensible how much she will be missed! such a kind spirit. we were hoping the new medications she was going to be taking in an experimental program she told us about would help.
But happy that in the last few years, she'd gotten a few mibs from us that she just 'had to have' for her VAST collection. years ago she was kind enough to let us have some from her collection that we just HAD to have. lol and the circle of friendship with Patry will never be broken. ... our thoughts and prayers are with her family, and all our 'marble family' in this time of loss and sorrow.
'til we meet again ...

I knew it was not good when she had not emailed or sent me a card the last couple months. Sad day,she will be missed coast to coast.
Peace now Patry !

I recall selling a couple marbles on eBay to Patry. It made me feel like "somebody" in the marble world because a big marble name person had actually bought from me, a very green and inexperienced newbie. It makes me sad to hear that she is gone.

Sounds like she was a lovely Lady, my prayers are with her family.

It was here that I knew Patry.
She will be missed.
